12 YEAR AGO Edguy released the 'Superheroes EP' with Michael Kiske singing the epic track 'Judas At The Opera'. Tobias Sammet about 'Judas At The Opera': "When 'Judas At The Opera' was done, I figured out, that the song had something from "Avantasia". A mixture of heavy Queen, Richard Wagner and Avantasia. I thought I'd ask him just now if he wants to participate. Then he listened to the song and agreed..." "In the beginning people love you for being in a heavy metal band, for being rebels, for going your own way, for making no compromises. But once you go onstage and do something that people can’t comprehend or don’t want to comprehend, they start to bash you for exactly that attitude they loved you for. They say, “Oh, you’re a Judas, you’re not wearing heavy metal pants onstage! You are not a heavy metal band, because you’re wearing strange clothes, and you’re saying wrong things!” As soon as you get successful, some people turn their backs on you and start to bash you, and that’s what 'Judas At The Opera' is about." #Edguy #TobiasSammet #Superheroes #SuperheroesEP #JudasAtTheOpera #Unisonic #MichaelKiske #Kiske #Queen #Avantasia #teachersday
